Search doesn't find words written in my language (Eg. Chinese), help!

Things to check:
  • Have you followed InternationalizationSupplement? Specifically, Foswiki should be configured to use a character set which natively supports the characters you are using in the wiki.
  • Is the WYSIWYG editor allowing characters to be saved in their native encoding? Sometimes the WYSIWYG editor converts them to HTML entities instead (Eg. 利 becomes 利).
    Try adding this line to your Main.SitePreferences:
       * Set TINYMCEPLUGIN_ENTITY_ENCODING = raw
    as suggested in Question764.
